Assuming all the virtual linux servers were fully loaded with tasks
(say apache+mod_perl as an example)... What kind of tradition Intel
platform performance would each virtual linux instance be equivalent to?
e.g., CPU: ~600MHz PIII?
And what about network i/o? Would the z900 network i/o be a bottleneck
if all the virtual servers were blasting away?
